The last 7 years of agencies lowballing and padding their agencies with cheap, inexperienced creatives has come back to bite them.

Clients want more knowledgeable, experienced creatives working on their business. Who knew?

God I really wish I had done that. I came out a week before lockdown and I did night classes. It’s been so brutal. Did freelance until recently, then took FT at a small, not so great shop.

It was a mental health decision honestly. Still hunting like crazy for something better.

My friends from those schools didn’t have to go long before They found work. I couldn’t get an interview for 6 months

Just found out that end of the year I will be promoted from analyst directly to VP and since it’s such a large jump I’ll be the lowest paid VP in asset management at only $135k TC. Should I stay it out and wait for TC to align or take the promotion and jump ship bc I will likely get paid more elsewhere given how recruiters/other companies eat up hiring recently promoted ppl from other firms?

How likely is one to succeed at using a competing job offer to negotiate a raise at your own company? I’m happy at my current company aside from compensation, and don’t want to leave.

I also know I’m not indispensable to my company.
